Tree of the Week

Concolor
Fir

Comments: Concolor Fir offers distinctively soft foliage. This tree
is a look-alike for Colorado spruce, especially those trees with bluish
needles, and has no serious insect or
disease problems. Concolor fir can take sun and wind exposure
and salt spray on heavily traveled winter roads. It will withstand heat and drought better
than most firs but will not tolerate "wet feet." As a Christmas tree,
Concolor Fir remains fresh and retains its
needles for several weeks if provided with water. Its fragrance
is a unique, pleasant citrus-like scent both in the yard and in the
home.
